g++ is the traditional nickname of GNU C++, a freely redistributable C++ compiler. It is part of GCC, the GNU compiler collection. On Unix operating systems, gcc is the command typically used to invoke the GCC C compiler, while g++ is the command to invoke the GCC C++ compiler. ________________________________ From: Gilboa Davara <gilboad(a)gmail.com&gt; To: Community support for Fedora users <users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org&gt; Sent: Sunday, 31 January 2010 9:49:49 Subject: Re: Difference between g++ and c++?
